Answer:
StartFraction x over 7.5 EndFraction = StartFraction 12 over 1 EndFraction
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, in this question, given that Rosa earns $12 in an hour, she earns x dollars in 7.5 hours. So we are interested in finding the value of x.
Let’s write this in terms of proportion;
$12 = 1 hour
$x = 7.5 hours
$12 * 7.5 hours = $x * 1 hour
So this can be rewritten as;
$x/7.5 = $12/1 hour
Let us suppose missing term is y
so it becomes - ( x-1) + 5 = 2 ( x+3) - y
let us now try solving it for x ( in terms of y )
-x + 1 + 5 = = 2x + 6 - y
-x + 6 = 2x + 6 -y
6 + y = 2x + 6 +x
y = 3x
y / 3 = x
but x is given to be infinite . let us try placing y= the given options
x= x/3 which is not possible
x= 3x/3 which is giving valid statement
x= 1/3 which is a finite value
x= 5/3 again a finite value
so it is only y= 3x which could be the answer
Answer : option second that is 3x
0.9 is the answerrrrrrrrrrrrrr
